4.60% AER (Paid as 4.55% Gross)
(this savings account offers expected profit rather than interest as it follows Shariah principles). AER is the Annual Equivalent Rate and represents what the expected profit rate would be if profit was realised and paid once each year. Profit is calculated daily and paid annually back to your Raisin UK account. Profit will be paid gross without prior deduction of tax. It is your responsibility to declare and pay any tax on Profit in the appropriate tax year.

Please ensure you have read all sets of Terms and Conditions (Gatehouse Bank Plc Term Deposit Conditions, Raisin UK Terms & Conditions and Meteor Asset Management Raisin UK Deposit Terms and Conditions) before applying for this product. If you have any queries relating to any of the Terms and Conditions, please contact Raisin UK through your Raisin UK Account.
Because this savings account is a fixed term deposit, withdrawals are not permitted before the maturity date, except if an account holder dies or becomes bankrupt. This savings account does NOT operate on the basis that you can end the fixed term of your savings account prematurely and pay a fee to withdraw your funds sooner.
Your savings account will not automatically renew at the end of the fixed term for a further fixed term. At the end of the fixed term, unless you elect to renew your savings account with us, we will credit the profit that has accrued into your Raisin UK Account.
Meteor Asset Management (MAM), with their administration arm Meteor Investment Management (MIM), will administer the deposit on your behalf.
Funds will appear in MIM’s account by the following business day from funding your application at the latest. Funds will be remitted to Gatehouse Bank Plc by MIM on the next business day after arriving in the MIM account. It can therefore take up to 2 business days for an ordered product to be set up and start earning profit.
All cash in transit and deposits once established, will be held by MIM and MAM in trust for you under FCA client money and asset rules. Please see the Meteor Asset Management Raisin UK Deposit Terms and Conditions for further details.
Shari’a banking, also known as Islamic banking, covers any financial activity that complies with Shari’a principles, reflecting the belief that exploitative gains, such as earning interest on money, are prohibited. Subsequently, Shari’a savings accounts use the money from deposits to invest and generate a profit, rather than an interest rate. There are no restrictions on who can apply for a Shari’a savings account.
